Rafe Esquith
Special Performance by the “Hobart Shakespeareans”
In a L.A. neighborhood plagued by guns, gangs, and drugs, there is an exceptional classroom known as Room 56. Esquith reveals the techniques that have made him one of the most acclaimed educators of our time. “Rafe Esquith is my only hero.” – Sir Ian McKellan.
Rafe Esquith has taught at Hobart Elementary School in Los Angeles for twenty-four years. He is the only teacher to have been awarded the president's National Medal of the Arts. His many other honors and awards include the American Teacher Award, Parents magazine As You Grow Award, Oprah Winfrey's Use Your Life Award TM, and People magazine's Heroes Among Us Award.
